Professor Julia Boffey, MA DPhil , is the Professor of Medieval Studies in the School of English and Drama at Queen Mary, University of London , England.

Prof. Boffey works in the medieval and early modern areas, especially on traditions of English verse writing, and with a particular focus on Chaucer and fifteenth-century literature. She came to Queen Mary after studying at Newnham College, Cambridge and then the Centre for Medieval Studies at York, where her D.Phil. thesis was on late Middle English verse manuscripts. A book about The Manuscripts of English Courtly Love Lyrics in the Later Middle Ages grew from that work; and an edition of Fifteenth-Century English Dream Visions: An Anthology developed from it. Her long-term interest in the material aspects of literary production has recently involved research into the early intersections between manuscript and print, and on the compilation and transmission of local chronicles.
